What We Have Noticed: Bont, Sugoi, Triathlon 2010 …
We noticed the Bont Vaypor cycling shoes, the Sugoi RSE Windblock jersey, the Triathlon 2010 WCS review book, the finished Iron Blazeman song, an interesting 686 tool belt and a jar of Karmic BS.
Bont Vaypor
What: The Vaypor is the newest road cycling shoe from the Aussie brand Bont, and the base of it is made by hand, sandwiching cross weave carbon and uni-directional carbon fiber and embedding them with epoxy thermo setting resin. A change from the predecessor model VTT1 is a reduced carbon height in the toe box for lighter weight and more comfort. The Vaypors are fully heat moldable, but fit this editor like a glove and thus need no further adjustment.
Weight: 240 grams
Colors: white leather, or shiny microfiber in white, black, black and white or pink and white.
Sizes: 36-50
MSRP: $480 AUD

Sugoi RSE Windblock
What: It is getting colder outside in the Northern Hemisphere and the Sugoi RSE Windblock jersey will hit the spot for many rides right now. The RSE Windblock is cut like a jersey, but this garment feels a bit more like a jacket. The jersey is also water resistant and breathable.
Color: Gunmetal
Sizes: S-XL
MSRP: $150

Triathlon 2010 review
What: The Triathlon 2010 book features stunning images of the 2010 Dextro Energy World Championship series won by Javier Gomez and Emma Moffatt and would make a great Christmas gift for a loved one, or yourself. A DVD is included.
Pages: 200
MSRP: Euro 24.95

Iron Blazeman song
What: After 179 hours of recording and mixing with 4 rock stars, 17 Pro triathletes and Olympic athletes (Chrissie Wellington, Leanda Cave, Andy Potts, Bryan Rhodes, Jasmine Oeinck etc), several age groupers, the Iron Blazeman song is finished. We heard it and it really sounds great. Kudos to all those who made it possible, including 2010 Ironman World Champion Mirinda Carfrae featured below in the recording studio. According to Mark Mason of Ampage, it'll be available for download this week on iTunes, amazon.com and wherever else you buy your music from. Just in general we recommend giving money for the fight against ALS.
MSRP: $2.99

686 Snow tool belt
What: We have a certain idea what a tool belt looks like, but this isn't your dad's tool belt. Some other belts include a bottle opener, but this 686 one goes a few steps further and also features #2 Phillips and flathead plus 8, 10, 11mm wrench loops. The belt itself is 100% full grain waterproof leather and comes in 3 sizes.
Sizes: M(30-34), L(34-38), XL(38-42)
MSRP: $39.95
Website: 686.com
Karmic BS
What: No matter where you go or where you are, you are always likely to stumble across someone who is full of BS. Now you can easily call that person out along those lines with a jar of Karmic BS, FDA approved, sanitized bovine excrement. You can even pick from a variety of punch lines such as "I've had enough of yours."
MSRP: $5.99
